Has anyone ever had to get one, or gotten one for any reason? I had a coworker recommend them, spouting (no pun intended) some facts about impacted fecies in the average colon and health risks associated with this being left unattended.
Having lost two close relative to colon cancer I wonder if this is something anyone on here would recommend.

The whole process sounds very uncomfortable

Ive had 2 of them.
They really aren't as uncomfortable as I had build myself up to beleive,
that being said... its still pretty weird.

But yeah, you feel a lot better for sure, its noticeable, and you lose a few lbs.

Thanks for the feedback everyone!
I'll try the soda stuff and the acai berry juice.

of course none of you are skipping this part are you... I've increased both my fiber and my water intake (about 10 pints of water a day at work and more in the evenings. I've noticed that i've been having episodes of extreme loose bowels. Could this be from the over hydration?

Yeah Tenn's gut story is stomach turning?

Just drink some of that stuff. It will clean you out real good. I had to drink some before going for a doc visit. It tastes bad so I chased it down with a bunch of water. I started going and going and going the last time I sat down it was clear as a mountain stream amazing. This was after my operation from the knee to the gut. Mark knows the story. A bonus was after that you could set your clock by my movements.

You really only need to drink it until your movements are clear. If you get that before drinking the whole thing, it's enough. Most people don't drink enough and their pictures are "muddy". You want them to be able to clearly see the lining of your colon or you are wasting the test. Drink till it's clear or you might as well not do it at all. And they give you great drugs for it.

I didnít know that. I drank the whole bottle killed it in about three good gulps. Then drunk about a liter of water. Doc said I was clean as a whistle. Mine was for an ultrasound didnít get no drugs.
